Happy Bunny Day 🐰🐣💗
Hi everyone!Just a small post to say Happy Easter to you all and I hope you had a nice day eating Choccies, relaxing and doing whatever Easter activities you do ☺️Did anyone do an egg hunt? I did a small one with choccie buttons for my daughter but I think I had more fun hiding those little pompom chicks around the house. I’ll be finding strays for the next few days now haha 😅————-I’ll have some sneaky Peaky pictures to show of what I’ve been working on when I can hop onto my pc tomorrow. Heads up, almost all of it will pro...

Just a little peek at the basket interactions coming next week (*hopefully*) & also a teeny icon addition to the homemade ingredients section which I think looks cute. I'm aiming to finally get those canning recipes out along with a few other additions which i'll give you a little peek at soon. Unfortunately there won't be any Easter themed foods coming as the household has the flu, including myself so I've been very sluggish with progress and just taking things steady with the canning recipes I was working on (as you can imagin...

Just another sneak peak at the salt Grannie was preparing earlier ~ i'll be bringing this ingredient to the homemade ingredients mod (it was originally in my medieval cookbook but i'm giving it a makeover and popping it there instead to be used in canning as well!)I'll be bringing a few other homemade ingredients over as well in preparation for my hunting & foraging mod remake. I'm looking forward to the future cross compatibility 😊

It may not seem like much but I have spent waaayy too long trying to figure out how to swap the wooden spoon out to a pestle without overriding it .. there's still a lot of testing to do but hopefully it will make it into the homestead helper for some upcoming ingredients/recipes! I'm crossing my fingers that i'll be able to make some other 'stubborn to make props' in the future but it definitely is not a breeze.. 😮💨

Just another look at the lemon curd canning recipe I have been working on ~ I got side tracked into making a cute little shelf to store the jars as the options are a bit limited in game. Furniture making is not my thing but I think it turned out not too bad plus look at all those jars!
Homemade Ingredients ~ handmade + stand mixer
Home Chef Hustle Handmade Prepped Ingredients Mod has now been moved to it's own page- download here.---Updated 20-08-2025: Please delete old versions & redownload the ingredients.Single servings of ingredients are now named as 'Portion of IngredientName' to make it easier to know which serving size a recipe calls for. Please note that recipes calling for xnumber of 'IngredientName' will take that number of portions directly from the large serving of the ingredient. It is not asking for that number of whole large servings un...

Important Updates/Info
Hi everyone!There has been lots of unexpected delays causing me to take much longer than hoped but finally things are organised and on the way! The Homestead Helper Mod (thank you to Eli for the name suggestion!) is going to be making an appearance very soon. With this, there are some important updates coming to Grannies Cookbook and also some recipes that you must update once the Homestead Helper mod is out due to the behind the scenes shuffling. Check this list for the updated recipes and make sure to grab all those applicable to you and dele...
WIP ~ homemade dough
A little look at making your own homemade prepped dough by hand.The end result contains 4 portions of prepped dough that can be used with recipes asking for that ingredient 😊(I've also been playing around with a new bowl mesh/texture as I'm currently disliking the silver ones.. these will be as optional overrides for EA's current mixing bowls.)
Jar preference
Hi! Just a quick poll to see which jar you prefer..On the left is a Lemon Curd and on the right is Strawberry Custard. (a little rough around the edges ~ still a work in progress)I'm not sure if I like Ea's jar for every canning recipe so I was going to make a more simpler version (on the left) perhaps with a label/tag instead of the big sticker on the front. This would come in different sizes depending on the contents.. (colours will differ per recipes and wont always be a plain top)Which do you prefer?
Update 27/02/2024 - mods cleared
Hi everyone!Just popping in to say that I've checked through each mod and they have all seemed to have made it through the patch! (yay!!)There has been some changes to the way the game handles the tunings. I believe most of mine should already be set to the correct number unless the mod requires a specific pack. If you experience any issues with any of my mods and have read through/meet the mods requirements then please message me and I can take a look.---Regarding my Olde Cookbook Mod, this mod is likely in need of updating but as I'm ...

Thank you for your patience 💚

I wanted to give you a sneak peak at this collection I've been working on. (still a work in progress so will be ready by the second week of next month.. hopefully sooner but trying to set a realistic timeframe aha)Also I will be adding a couple more ingredients to the stand mixer and hopefully have the alternate version through the cookbook available to download then too. I'm still working on the 'off the grid' no stand mixer prepped ingredients too! I was trying to get it out this month but I've been feeling a little unwell...

An early look at the foragers basket in it's different versions. Full, empty and broken.I'm working on adding a basket when your sim returns from foraging instead of having the items be loose in the inventory. Your sims will be able to craft a basket at the 'hunters table' which they can then take foraging to gain more items to bring home. There will be a chance the basket will break and either a new one be made or fix the basket (i'm still figuring out how to go about this but I thought it would be a nice addition if it wor...
